Hi all, I've just subscribed - very impressed with
the quality of correspondence!
I'm not an experienced 'watcher' but love birds and
was very distressed to find the remains of a little flycatcher on the ground
yesterday morning - just a few feathers of course. It was all the worse
because I had heard this little flycatcher (the mate of the victim) making very
agitated noises early in the morning, had even got up to look! and saw him
jumping & hopping around on the verandah - obviously trying to stop what was
happening below (which I couldn't see). And I ignored it! Vaguely
wondered what he was so excited about and went back to sleep! I feel so
bad - and angry! I guess it was a cat, we have a few around that belong to
people who just don't seem to know (or care) about the impact domestic cats have
on our wildlife - any comments? suggestions? Jennie
